I'd like to have a GM message function that allows us to leave a short communication to our members for when they log in.

Add it to the Guild options menu. Click on GM Message and enter a short message about guild activities/status, or whatever.

Example:

Joe the Pirate logs in. When his loading screen is finished and he is dropped on an island, the text message automatically comes up (similar to "Jolly Roger's curse blah blah blah").

From GM: I must attend to real life issues for the next week. Co-GM (insert pirate name) will be the point of contact for any issues.

It can also be used to coordinate guild functions such as lv40 parties, Hide and Seek, etc.
This looks to be a great idea

Though there is here for forums and PMs as well as other private Guild Web Sites, I know there have been several players who a) are not members of here b) parents do not let them surf the web to 'unknown' sites and a simple message in game by GMs and Officers (or designated by the GM - or maybe future Ranks ) would be another way to communicate
